Julián Álvarez is about to finalize his sale to Manchester City in England, and that is why it is worth reviewing the most expensive transactions throughout the history of Club Atlético River Plate to different markets.
In what position will Calchín’s “Spider” be placed when it becomes official? We reveal the question below. Surely you will be surprised with some data.
The “Clown” made the jump to European football in January 2001 to play for the Valencia from Spain, which disbursed $20 million by the Cordovan, at that time the most expensive pass in the history of River. Currently the fifth.
Sebastián Driussi left in 2017 from River to Zenit of Russia in exchange for 23 million dollars, now being the fourth most expensive outgoing pass in Millionaire history. Despite being a non-top league in Europe, the striker did not hesitate.
Lucas Alario to Bayer Leverkusen is River’s third most expensive sale. The club did not want to let him go, but “Pipa” put pressure on him to execute his termination clause and left for the German team in exchange for $24 million (River owned 60% of his pass.) He still could not demonstrate all his conditions there.
When it becomes official, Álvarez’s sale to Manchester City will be the second most expensive sale in its history: the City Group will pay for the “Spider” about 27.5 million dollars.
The most expensive sale in millionaire history continues to be that of the “Rabbit” to theBarcelona in 2001. The Catalan club paid some €36 million. Crazy.
